CHAPTER 3: Space and Time

Orpheus was stunned by his expression even the tears he had stopped and had gone

pale, then asked on a low voice while smiling forcibly "Lark, what’s

wrong?"

Pondering how to proceed with his inquires, Lark recalled in his memories was the betrayal of Orpheus and dying by his hands, when all he just wanted is to protect what's

left of his most important people from the unknown that he could

not explain, but in his mind, there are three different kinds of memory. The first memory he had is that he didn't became good friends with Orpheus, and he’s living happily with his beloved

and family. The second memory he had is that he lost his beloved, fall onto despair, became friends

with Orpheus became his speck of light and was betrayed at the end and lost

his life. The last one he has is his current memory which he first became friends with

Orpheus earlier than his second memory, but having the feeling of happiness on his fist memory, the only difference is that in his first nor his second

memory he didn't have this accident that occurred about month ago, so in his

conclusion the only variable for now is "Orpheus Nox".

"Who are you? You’re not the Orpheus Nox" Lark asked calmly.

Orpheus was stunned and replied

"What are you talking about?"

"I'm Orpheus Nox" Orpheus said.

"No, you’re not, your body might be but you’re not, Orpheus doesn't have magic"

"What, but you clearly discovered my talent for

magic"

"Yes, I did, but you are not Orpheus"

"I'm confused, you say I don’t have magic but I have, what you are

talking about"

"The Orpheus in my memory can't have magic, because he is a ‘Null’ means he can

never wield magic because he doesn't have a core so the magic can't be stored in his body, but you have a

core and can wield magic even if it’s small but your potential is endless, as

well as your vast knowledge and theories that haven't been tested and

researched yet, so let me ask you again Who are You"

"I..."

"If I recall correctly, you've asked me about space time and natural

balance, thus this mean…"

"Yes, I..."

"Stop! "Lark grabbed him suddenly upon realizing his

situation.

Orpheus was stunned he didn’t think that someone could find his secret

that wants to bury in his grave.

"You can't say it, there are things you can’t say even

to me. I get it, it is all making sense now, my unbalanced memory my core being abnormal ever since I woke up,

and the accident."

Orpheus was shocked upon hearing this; he understands that he did not

only have a transmigration but Lark also has a rebirth. Because of the cause and effect, when he

transmigrated to this world, he ended up causing the sudden accident of Lark.

Upon realization that he almost lost his best friend because of the world balance suddenly made him teared up and remorseful.

"What? What’s wrong with you?"

Orpheus hold both of his hands and started apologizing over and over

again that made Lark

unbearable, slightly happy because he feels that Orpheus is sincere and true to

their friendship.

"Can you stop? Ever since you arrive all you've been gloomy all the

time."

"It’s because I almost lost my Best Friend and thinking that

I have something to do with it makes it so unbearable"

“I know now that it is not your fault, and you did not ask for these to

happen and I did sense that you tried to desperately to save me despite lacking

combat experience” Lark said proudly.

“You’re the only friend that I have, even then and now, so I will definitely

give everything that I have just to save you"

"I... can see your sincerity, so why?" Lark suddenly asks the

question he buried deep in his heart.

Orpheus was confused by his sudden question of "why".

"Why plot against me if you treat me as your only friend?"

Lark slowly stated what he can in his memories.

Orpheus was shocked and is at a loss for words, then he realizes the

plot of the novel he read is the opposite of what Lark have in his memories,

then said

"But you plotted against me?"

The two stared at each other in confusion, then they started to lay down

the facts that they can both remember and shared their information to each

other, just enough in order not to break the balance of this world and to not

make another ripple that could cause another harm.

"If you're trying to harm me because I tried to harm

you, in retaliation I tried to harm you because you're trying to harm me, but

would I want to harm you?" Lark asked in confusion.

"Is it not because you like Lord Mayur

Umbriel?" Orpheus asked.

"Why would I like a peacock like him?" Lark remembered on his second memory

that Orpheus like the Young Lord Umbriel and asked "I remember you meet

Mr. Umbriel at their garden party some time ago and hit it off, don’t you like Mr. Umbriel back then Orphe? he asked

scornfully.

Upon hearing Lark's question Orpheus shuddered covered in goosebumps and

replied in disgust "why would I like such a scum person, don't even

mention how greasy that person is, if you want him, he's all yours but I advise you not

to like him though"

"Ugh... no thanks I don't want such a peacock scum like

him" Lark said. "Besides I already have someone I love and I don't

want anybody else but that person" he said and smiled slightly.

The two of them keep on talking about their past and interests when Lark glanced up and saw a man walking

toward them and slowly stood up and approached them smiling lovingly.
